Franklin is a small Sector BPI portfolio that continues to hold its own when compared to the SPY benchmark. We now have a two-year history with this model for the Franklin.

Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 26 November 2024
Franklin is one of five Sector BPI portfolios with a current holding of one sector ETF, VDE or Energy. This morning I checked the Bullish Percent Indicator for Energy and it is holding steady at 63.63% bullish. When Energy reaches the 70% bullish mark I will place a 3% Trailing Stop Loss Order (TSLO) under […]
Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 30 December 2024
Franklin is the final scheduled portfolio review for 2024. Instead of a Santa Clause rally we appear to merit only lumps of coal. Is the market “girding its loins” for four years of chaos?
